GROWTH PLANS/SPECIAL FEATURES
Dell, Inc. designs, develops, manufactures, markets, sells and supports a wide range of computing products that in many cases are customized to individual customer requirements. The company’s product categories include desktop PCs; servers and networking products; storage; mobility products; and software and peripherals. A few of Dell’s products include OptiPlex desktop computers; Alienware, Latitude and Inspiron notebook computers; PowerEdge servers; Dell Precision workstation products; and PowerVault storage products. The company utilizes a direct selling strategy to bypass retailers and middlemen by selling products online directly to end users. The company has four operating segments: large enterprise; public; small and medium business; and consumer. The large enterprise segment includes large global and national corporate business customers. The public segment focuses on customers such as educational institutions, government, health care and law enforcement agencies. The small and medium business segment focuses on providing simple, customized IT applications and services to small and medium-sized businesses. The consumer segment sells to customers through its online store, dell.com, over the phone and through retailers. The firm offers a variety of support services such as warranty services, proactive maintenance offerings, technical support and consulting services. Through Dell Financial Services L.P., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dell, the company is able to offer or arrange various financial services for its business and consumer customers in the U.S. In 2011, Dell acquired the information security firm SecureWorks, Inc.; Compellent Technologies, Inc., a provider of highly-virtualized storage solutions; Dell Financial Services Canada; and Force10 Netwotks, Inc., a high-performance datacenter networking provider. In April 2012, the company agreed to acquire private firm Wyse Technology, Inc. The firm offers employees medical, dental and vision insurance; flexible spending accounts; life insurance and disability coverage; an employee assistance program; a 401(k); discounts on Dell computers; auto and home insurance discounts; adoption assistance; and an educational assistance program.
